Hello,

I have a module with a gui which isn't showing up in the parent module. If someone could take a look at my file and help point me in the right direction, that would be great.

synth module -> saw -> supersaw supersaw has some dials, but isn't showing up in saw

compare to: synth module -> saw -> supersaw -> detune modules the detune modules show up in supersaw, as does the label

so I don't understand why the detune modules will show up in its parent but the supersaw module won't show up in its parent

thanks

Ok, I've had a look but Jorge has too and he's going to reply. You might want to look at the new GUI documentation which is now online.

You have one ToParent component missing in your schematic, it should be as follows:

You should also resize the module that you see selected in the following screen capture otherwise it will appear clipped higher up in the main front panel:

I see I'm not the only one playing with 'super' saws 😉

Got it, thanks. I had put a "to parent" module in the saw module, expecting that to work. Now it makes sense: "to parent" in supersaw makes supersaw show up inside saw when on the synth page.
